I'm not that impressed with Duke. But he's looking like the odd man out once Hunt completes his 6 game suspension.

He is good at what he is a 3rd down back who can run between the tackles, and most important depth.

ďIím so tired of LeíVeon," DeCastro told reporters (h/t ESPN's Jeremy Fowler ([url]https://twitter.com/JFowlerESPN/status/1038909446146203649[/url])) after Sunday's game. "Iím so tired of it. Letís just worry about the guys in here. I know you guys have stories to write and what not. I love LeíVeon, but we gotta worry about the guys in here. Theyíre the only people that matter to me."

Even if he is suspended they don't pay him and the contract begins one year later, or whenever the suspension ends. Much the same way that the Steelers did not have to account for Bryant during his suspension and an extra year was added before he could hit free agency.

That’s looking ahead by the browns. Nothing wrong in that.

From the 2010-2018 season, (An 8 year period that the majority of Cowher's players & coaches had left) Mike Tomlin has only won 3 playoff games. And two of those wins were against back up Quarterbacks. Our history has been defined by what we do in the postseason; not the regular season.

A day 3 draft pick, not a 3rd round draft pick. I was thinking perhaps one of our two 6th round picks.

AHHH, I need glasses!

After thinking about it, they are not going to get rid of Duke....

Hunt is going to suspended up to 10 games and without pay. This is a future move for 2020-21 to keep his rights.

Too bad his first name wasn't Mike, " Mike Hunt goes deep"...

Oh yeah I forgot to mention, I guess we can scratch Bell signing with them...

I don’t think Hunt is going to do more then 6 games. Why? Well hes going to do all the community service stuff plus he’s missed a number of games all ready. He’ll show remorse and the second chance people are already starting his campaign.

For years, the Bengals tried to build a team with talented, low character guys. The Joe Mixon's and Burfict's of the world. It never worked for them. I actually see this as a step in the wrong direction for the Browns. It may have a short term payoff, but ultimately, I don't think this helps them.

I agree but losers like the Bumgals and Browns view the world differently. They are so desperate for success they will sell their souls to get one or two years of success...and their fans will support them 100%
